One NFL scout would trade his entire defense for the Ohio State defense

Is it the Browns?

Ohio State has had a huge defensive presence at the NFL Scouting Combine and on mock drafts boards all offseason. Eli Apple, Vonn Bell, Joey Bosa, Darron Lee, Joshua Perry, Tyvis Powell, and Adolphus Washington are all coveted by NFL scouts and all of them played on the defensive side of the ball for the Buckeyes.

Just to show how great and talented these guys were for OSU, NFL Network's Daniel Jeremiah described a call he had with an NFL scout.

"I was on the phone with (a scout) just the other day ... he said, 'I would trade our NFL defense right now for the Ohio State defense in a heartbeat. I'd do it right now,'" Jeremiah said Friday during NFL Network's coverage of Ohio State's pro day. "When you hear that you (think), 'C'mon,' but you start going through the three levels of the defense, and even some younger guys that aren't eligible in this draft class. Oh my gosh, this is a loaded football team."

He wouldn't name which team the scout was associated with, but Ohio residents have to be thinking the Browns, right?
